Phys.org / Deciphering symbiotic code: Research unlocks 'secret handshake' between legumes and rhizobia
In a study published in Science, researchers have resolved, for the first time, the high-resolution crystal structure of the complex formed between the NodD protein of pea rhizobia and a flavonoid compound (hesperetin). They ...
Medical Xpress / 'Unique' AI-powered headset can predict epilepsy seizures
A "unique" AI-powered headset that can predict epileptic seizures minutes before they occur has been developed by scientists in Scotland.
Tech Xplore / Brew, smell, and serve: AI steals the show at CES 2026
AI took over CES 2026, powering coffee machines to brew the perfect espresso, a device to create your perfect scent, and ball-hitting tennis robots that make you forget it's human against machine.
Medical Xpress / Inflammatory immune cells predict survival and relapse in multiple myeloma
A new study maps the immune cell landscape of bone marrow in patients with multiple myeloma, a rare cancer that develops in the plasma cells of the bone marrow and has no cure. This large immune cell atlas, which includes ...
Tech Xplore / Self-driving cars could prevent over 1 million road injuries across the US by 2035
Autonomous vehicles could dramatically reduce traffic accidents and injuries on U.S. roads. Drawing on historical data and current trends, a recent JAMA Surgery study projected that self-driving cars could prevent more than ...
Tech Xplore / The hidden carbon footprint of wearable health care
University of Chicago and Cornell University researchers analyzed wearable health care electronics and reported carbon impacts of 1.1–6.1 kg CO2-equivalent per device. With global device consumption projected to rise 42-fold ...
Phys.org / The electrifying science behind Martian dust
Mars, often depicted as a barren red planet, is far from lifeless. With its thin atmosphere and dusty surface, it is an energetic and electrically charged environment where dust storms and dust devils continually reshape ...
Medical Xpress / Insurance data can help fill gaps between longer medical trials for patients up against the clock
